* The sixth book, ''Junkyard Dogs'', is full of [[Creator/CarlHiaasen Hiaasenesque]] slapstick and farcical situations, to the point where [[VileVillainSaccharineShow it's a little jarring]] when the bad guys' identity and backstory finally come to light.
** In the opening chapter, Walt is trying to figure out how an Absaroka County resident ended up getting dragged down an icy road behind his granddaughter-in-law's car. As it turned out, he'd anchored himself to the (parked) car with a rope, to keep from slipping off his roof while doing some house work.
--->''"Gina come around the house and said she was going to the store and did we need anything. I told her no, and then she left... We heard the car door slam and the motor catch, and [[OhCrap that's when Grampus and me looked at each other.]] It was about then that the rope went tight."''
** The climactic car chase takes place in the titular junkyard... at about three miles an hour, between [[spoiler:the sheriff on foot, and a tow truck stuck in first gear]].

From the novels:
* The second book, ''Death Without Company'', has a streak of [[BlackComedy (very, very dark)]] humor running through much of it. For a lot of the middle chapters, [[NewMeat trial deputy]] Santiago Saizarbitoria gets saddled with going through the VictimOfTheWeek's papers--a mix of personal letters,[[note]]largely in Basque, which is why Santiago has to deal with them[[/note]] business correspondence, and poetry--while getting left out of the loop on what everyone else is doing. Finally, he updates Walt and Henry on what he's found:
-->'''Walt''': What about the personal stuff?\\
''(He leaned in a little, and his voice dropped.)''\\
'''Santiago''': Mrs. Baroja may have had a long-term affair with [[spoiler:Sheriff Connally]].\\
''(The Bear and I looked at each other and back to Saizarbitoria; it was Academy Award stuff, but lost on him.)''\\
'''Walt''': Ancient history... Any mentions of Charlie Nurburn?[[note]]Baroja's late husband[[/note]]\\
'''Santiago''': Old, numerous, and not kind.\\
'''Walt''': Any mention of the financial relationship between Mari and him?\\
'''Santiago''': Some, early on, but he seems to be [[DramaticIrony cut out of the picture]] by the early fifties.\\
''(Henry and I looked at each other again, but he was quicker.)''\\
'''Henry''': You can say that again.\\
'''Santiago''': Are you two going to keep looking at each other or are you going to let me in on this?\\
'''Walt''': ...A lot of this stuff is local history. If you're going back to Rawlins then you don't need to know it.\\
'''Santiago''': I'm in.\\
'''Walt''': [[spoiler:Mari Baroja cut Charlie Nurburn's throat]] in 1951.[[note]]Don't worry, he had it coming.[[/note]]\\

* "What happened to your hand?" "Hurt it."
* "What happened to your nose?" "Started bleeding."



* when a criminal has Henry as a hostage, he asks Longmire what he is worth to him. Longmire states that he has known him since he was a boy only to state he has $20 on him. Henry can't seem to help but give Longmire a "you can't be serious" look.

*Walt finds out that his daughter Cady has been working at the Red Pony parttime, and he doesn't seem happy about it. But shortly afterwards, Cady finds out that a "hot guy" at a certain table was a potential hitman. The smile on Walt's face when he says "Yeah. These are the kind of people you come across when you work in a bar" is just has such a smartass TakeThat to it, given the context.
